The small boy with the rather sad little face is Kevin Sharp, 314 years, of Grove City, Ohio, who wanted to see a jumbo-size- d version of the toy microscope given him on his last birthday by his doctor. Kevin has to see his doctor regularly because he is a victim of spina bifida, or open spine. He is paralyzed from the waist down and cannot play ball or indeed play much at anything. , Such mobility as he has is made possible by his crutches and leg braces. Kevins is one of the significant birth defects the cause of which is being pursued today by The National Foundation with New March of Dimes contributions. Congenital malfor mations afflict 250,000 infants annually m the United States and are responsible for the deaths of 34,000 babies each year who are stillborn or die within four weeks of birth. The health organizations ex panded program also includes arthritis and continued work in polio. In his excitement while reaching for the eyepiece of the vast instrument, Kevin probably didnt know that m the lens of such electron microscopes, scientists hope some day to pinpoint the cause of the savage embryonic mishap that crippled him before he was born. By comparing normal and abnormal cells under tremendous magnifies' tion, researchers hope to discover, for example, why Kevins spine never fused during his mothers pregnancy, or why some other little boy or girl is born with excess fluid on the brain another baffling birth defect which The National Foundation is studying. At his birth, doctors gave Kevin only a few hours to WISE SAID the social security tax remains the same, 3 withheld from the employees wages, and 3 paid by the employer, or a total of These rates apply to the first $4,800 of wages.
